Arrested Development Celebrating 20 Years With New Cd LIVING

Two time Grammy Award winner group Arrested Development has a new album titled Living. Arrested Development (AD) is a creative hip hop rap group. They are true veterans in the business. Arrested Development when they first came on the music scene shopped their music on cassette tapes. Two decades later with YouTube, I-Everything and Apps, AD has free reign to bring their rap act to the next digital and mobile music generation. Arrested Development is best known as rap’s most creative group and for spearheading live instruments with sampling. What made Arrested Development different? Their Christian values in a season when rap music became filled with violent lyrics and degrading women. AD sort to celebrated African-American culture and history. We are excited at their return of the fundamental Hip-hop vibe Arrested Development is known for.
